I’ve just scratched the surface on what that can do. Filing takes longer if the contact’s name is in Japanese.)Īnyway, I feel comfortable using Mail and Mail Act-On, and hope to get to use MailTags more as I get used to it. (Note: Act-On key shortcuts still don’t let you enter Japanese.

Plus it remembers recent moves for even faster interaction. I’m finding it faster and more accurate to use. Even easier than the Act-On rules I had been using.Īctually, the Mail Act-On key shortcuts work better than those in Gmail. For example, I changed F3 to just the letter V and it makes it super easy to file in a folder.

Especially if you overwrite the default hot-keys (function keys on a MacBook Pro are not easy to use) and change them to just letters.
I am happy to report I’ve been able to add “missing functionality,” like the nice Gmail hot-keys and tagging using Indev’s Mail Act-On and MailTags. The missing piece to me was that I got used to Gmail shortcuts for doing things quickly, like going to a folder, filing in a folder, etc. (8) Even though I use IMAP, I also like having my mail actually residing on my computer as a backup rather than just relying on my connection to Gmail, and the assumption that Google won’t accidentally lose my data in some big accident. And it’s easier to focus on just one message in a conversation. (7) I think conversations are easier to read in Mail than in Gmail. In Gmail there is no send again! Or redirect. For example, re-sending an invoice later in the month, with some extra notes. (6) In Mail you can “send again” which is really useful.
For example, in Gmail/Mailplane you can’t enter a tab character to line things up! You can in Mail. (4) You can move messages between accounts. (3) You can have multiple signatures per account (useful in a multi-lingual environment). (2) Image attachments are quicker and work better. (1) It’s a lot easier on the eyes than Gmail via a web browser, or Mailplane (which is like Gmail, and has its own built-in browser, but added “client features”). Since the 10.9.3 and 10.9.4 OS X updates it seems to be working better with Gmail. After 6 months of being away from Apple Mail because of the Mavericks/Gmail problems I’ve been using Mail again lately.
